unproductive

I am not having a very productive week. On Friday I agreed to do a craft fair next Sunday, this means that all those little half finished products I've got, I wanted to try and get finished to take with me This seemed like a good idea but I have now got to the stage where my to do list is so long that I've had a little meltdown and threw my toys out of the pram.
I knew I wouldn't make anything worthwhile of my unfinished projects in that sort of mood so I did what any self respecting crazy crochet lady does, I started a new pretty project.

I got this flower pattern off pinterest and thought it would make a nice flower garland for the front of our stall. I even treated myself to some new yarn from my local wool shop castaway yarns. Me being me I couldn't just follow the pattern as written so I fiddled around with it and did it my way. Its a really nice pattern, works up really fast and I love the way the colours work together. I've only a couple more to make now and then hopefully I'll feel more inclined to tackle my to do list :)

I'm linking in with Handmade monday. There are some wonderful craft blogs to enjoy so why not wander over and say hello

your crochet flowers are so beautiful! love the colours and the yarn you used! you make me wanna revise my crochet skills right now!what yarn did you use on them, may i ask?it gives nice overall effect - not to fluffy, thick, yet just right :)

I listened to a cast about procrastination today - it was a great way of looking at things we don't finish. It basically stated that we should not do anything we don't want to because basically we're not ready - so ideally we should go and do something we want to do instead. You seem to have it sussed. Cx
